Jeez, folks. I couldn't tell you the names of the Jonas brothers before this, let alone the name of a single one of their songs. I just consider them one of the many boy bands that gets foisted upon us every four or five years because tween girls like cute boys who play instruments and sing and seem sensitive.

But I give credit to anyone willing to intentionally humiliate themselves so widely and publicly.

It may not as be as funny or original as other "Single Ladies" spoofs, but I actually found it endearing that he obviously didn't take it seriously enough to learn the lyrics or get the dance moves appropriately timed. He knew damn well how stupid it all was.

The brothers didn't take "Superstition" seriously enough to learn it for their collaboration with Stevie Wonder at the Grammy Awards, either.

No, it's not as funny as Justin Timberlake's version, but my ten year old daughter and the thousands of other Jonas fans her age don't watch Saturday Night Live. They'll think this is original and funny.

(I stopped watching the Grammys a while back - they seem to heap glory on one artist per year. I'm also officially middle-aged - I don't know who half the artists are anymore. The price I pay for picking and choosing my XM stations...)
